Rating 4.5

Mobil1 15w-50 (red label) was always good to me, and readily available at wally world. Never had lifter tick in my S50US, on track or otherwise, and it went to 298k before the head gasket gave up. Absolutely could have resealed the engine and ran it another 100k+ (swapped an S54 instead).

Pros: always good, readily available
Cons: head gasket gave up
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 298000 km

Mobil Engine oil

I mostly use the 0W-40 full synthetic Mobil 1 "European" or w/e they call it. I change my oil every 5K miles, including filter (Mann).

Pros: full synthetic
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 5000 km

OEM FORD Engine oil

On a side note, if anyone really wants to see what their oil change interval should be, just get an actual oil sample analysis done. Per the lab reports, I can get 8k miles on quality synthetics and still have a good safe margin for oil life.

Pros: good safe margin
Mileage: 12875 km
